Your shrine is the remedy for every pain, my beloved Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Ridha(as). ❤️

📜 A Letter from Imam al-Mahdi(atf) to Shaykh al-Mufid(may Allah(swt) have mercy upon him): "O loyal and sincere friend - O you who stand against oppression for our cause. May Allah(swt) strengthen and support you with His help, just as He aided the righteous…

Our heartfelt condolences to Imam al-Mahdi(atf), and to all lovers of the Ahl al-Bayt(as) on the heart-rending anniversaries of the martyrdom of Our Merciful Mawla, the Messenger of Allah, Prophet Muhammad(pbuh); Our beloved Mawla، Imam Hassan al-Mujtaba(as); And our compassionate Mawla, Imam Ali ibn Musa al-Rida(as). 🤲 May Allah(swt) grant us the honour of remaining steadfast upon their path, and may He hasten the reappearance of our Mawla, Imam al-Mahdi(atf). اللهم صل علی محمد و آل محمد و عجل فرجهم‌ ☘

Imam Khomeini(ra): “Imam Hassan(as) suffered more at the hands of his own friends and companions than from anyone else. They failed to understand the strategy and course of action of the Imam of their time. Because of their limited outlook and incomplete…

Imam Khamenei: "Overall, you can see that what Imam Hassan(as) did had the same meaning and message as the deeds of Amir al-Mu'minin(as), Imam Hussain(as) and all of the other Imams(as); consciously resisting, understanding his duty and persevering. I tell…

Every time the call of “There is no god but Allah” is heard, it is the fruit of your efforts. Every Muslim who places their forehead upon the ground in sujood before Allah(swt) does so under the blessing of your sacrifice. The chains of captivity were shattered through your efforts, and the honour and dignity of Muslims are indebted to you.💚

Martyr Imam Khamenei said: “When Nahj al-Balagha is placed alongside the Qur'an, it is unquestionably second only to the Qur'an. There is no other book that matches it in authenticity, depth, breadth, and historical significance. Reviving Nahj al-Balagha…

If you are among those blessed to visit Karbala this Arbaeen and stand before our Mawla, Imam Hussain(as), please remember us and convey our salam to him. 💔

If we want to understand Arbaeen through the lens of the Qur'an, one verse stands out above all: verse 11 of Surah At-Taghabun. مَا أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ "No calamity befalls except by the permission of Allah." We will set this first…

If we want to understand Arbaeen through the lens of the Qur'an, one verse stands out above all: verse 11 of Surah At-Taghabun. مَا أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِ اللَّهِ "No calamity befalls except by the permission of Allah." We will set this first part of the verse aside for now. But then Allah says: وَمَن يُؤْمِنۢ بِاللَّهِ يَهْدِ قَلْبَهُ "And whoever believes in Allah, He guides his heart." Whoever truly believes in Allah, Allah guides their heart. ❓"Isn't this a general promise?"   Yes, it is. ❓ "Then what does it have to do with Arbaeen?" Because Arbaeen is one of the most remarkable manifestations of this divine guidance. Every year, Allah guides the hearts of millions of believers toward one destination: Karbala. No invitation. No compulsion. No worldly force. Across nations, languages, and cultures, hearts converge upon the same place, at the same time. This is يَهْدِ قَلْبَهُ in action Allah guides hearts. And on Arbaeen, that guidance becomes visible to the world. ☘️

It was nearly 40°C - extremely hot and humid. During that time, a German director at our company expressed his frustration about what he saw as an unfair difference in expectations between men and women in Western workplaces. He said: ‘Why are there virtually no rules about what women can wear?! They can dress however they like, while all the strict dress codes seem to apply only to men. In this unbearable heat, we're not even allowed to wear shorts.’ What he said reminded me of the words of Martyr Imam Khamenei! I've seen this countless times at official events in Europe and the United States: the men are all dressed in suits and ties, while many of the women are wearing revealing outfits. What made it particularly interesting was that these remarks didn't come from someone who is critical of Western thinking. Instead, they came from a German director who was expressing his frustration at what he perceived to be a contradiction and a clear double standard. ☘️

How Modestly They Walk! When Prophet Moses(as) fled Egypt after the incident that had taken place, he entrusted his heart entirely to Allah(swt). Although he found himself in extremely difficult circumstances - circumstances in which anyone might naturally feel anxious, distressed, or overwhelmed - he remained steadfast. All the years he had spent as a prince in Pharaoh's palace had seemingly come to nothing. He had once occupied the position of royalty, yet because of a single unforeseen event, everything changed in an instant. He was no longer a prince; he was now a fugitive. His situation could easily have led to despair, hopelessness, anger, or even resentment. Yet instead, he turned to Allah(swt) and submitted himself completely: "My Lord, whatever You decree is best. Guide me wherever You will." Allah(swt) answered his trust by guiding him safely to the land of Madyan. When Prophet Moses(as) arrived there, he sat beside a well to rest for a while. He noticed a group of men drawing water, while two young women stood back, waiting at a distance. He asked them, "What is your situation?" They replied, "Our father is an elderly man, and we must care for the flock ourselves. We are waiting until the crowd disperses before we approach the well." Prophet Moses(as) stepped forward, and drew water for them. The two women then returned home. Some time later, they came back and said, "Our father has invited you." Although Prophet Moses(as) had lost everything and was living as a stranger with no home or security, he accepted the invitation and set off with them. Now pay close attention to what happens next. Allah(swt) says in Surah Al-Qasas, verse 25: "She came to him walking with modesty." (tamshī ʿalā istiḥyāʾ) Prophet Moses(as) observed that the young woman walking ahead carried herself with remarkable modesty. Modesty was deeply rooted in her character - so much so that it was evident even in the way she walked. At the same time, Prophet Moses(as) also acted with honour and ghayrah. He said to the two young women - who were the daughters of Prophet Shu'ayb (as): "I shall walk ahead. Whenever I need to change direction, simply throw a small stone so that I know which way to turn." Notice the beauty of both behaviours. The young women preserved their modesty, and Prophet Moses(as) preserved appropriate boundaries and respect. Both examples deserve our attention. Having been nurtured by divine revelation, Prophet Moses acted with honourable ghayrah, not with bold familiarity or inappropriate confidence. Contrast this with much of today's world, where some actors and public figures seize every opportunity to strike up conversations with women for no good reason. One of Allah's righteous servants once remarked: "Years ago there were long queues everywhere - for meat, onions, and many other necessities. Whenever I joined a queue and found a woman standing directly in front of me, I would deliberately wait for another man to arrive so that I could stand behind him instead, leaving an appropriate distance. If I was going to stand in that queue for an hour, why should I stand immediately behind a woman? Why should I not preserve proper boundaries? Yet you would see another man using every excuse to chat with the woman in front of him or behind him, always wearing a smile. I often wondered whether he smiled so much at home, or whether that smile only appeared when speaking to women. Sadly, even in many workplaces today, interactions have become increasingly characterised by a lack of modesty." And we seek refuge in Allah(swt) from casual, unnecessary familiarity with non-mahrams in the online world as well. ☘
